My New Life

Chapter 54-They should date

I knew this day would come but I didn't expect it this early.

"Ok" I replied

"When you're out of rehab you will go to AA meetings and go to a psychiatrist" Aidan said

"Ok, that's fine" I replied

I needed a psychiatrist, it's easier to talk to one then your own family. I couldn't just tell them how I feel.

Aidan gave my brother a look and they left the room. I was confused, they had something planned

"Lexi, I want to talk to you about what happened before New York and during New York." He said

He wants to know about the drugs

"Ok, what about" I asked

"Well after talking to your brothers, we realized we didn't consider your feelings and how you felt. We overdid the punishments. We shouldn't have taken away all of your freedom, and because of that I caused you to start taking you drugs. I caused you to be in a coma, I caused this whole damn thing" he said

I saw a new side of Aidan. He didn't have the cold glare he had soft eyes, and emotion behind it.

"It's not your fault, you didn't know this would happen" I said

"No I caused you this pain. I was mean to you and never thought of you felt. I didn't realize that you were depressed. I didn't realized I let you go this far and I caused it" he said with tears

I opened my arms and he went in for a hug

"I'm so sorry Lexi" Aidan said in my shoulder

"It's ok" I replied rubbing is back

I felt bad, I knew he had guilt. He felt like he caused this.

"When you're out of rehab, I'm gonna make up your birthday, I know it won't fix it but I hope it can start somewhere. I will let you go back to school, you can play basketball again, I will let you see all of your friends. I'm very sorry Lexi" he said

"It's ok Aidan, it's gonna take time to trust and forgive you but hopefully soon I'll be able to. I'm sorry for running away to Hawaii and slapping you. I was angry and wanted to get away. I didn't know what to do, I just wanted to leave and get away. I shouldn't have but impulsively I did" I replied

"It's ok, don't tell the others but I did something similar, I went to Fiji without anyone knowing. It was fun until I had to come home" he replied with a small laugh

"Hey why do I get in trouble then" i said putting my hands up.

"You're 16" he said

"Actually 17" I replied

"I left when I was 18" he said

"Fine I'll just wait a year" I said

"Nope, you are not scaring the shit out of me again" he said with a chuckle

We both laughed about it.

"Hey I know you don't want to go to rehab, but you will get better. We will see you every week on family day. You do have phone privilege, but only certain timing. You will really like it" Aidan said

"I need rehab, I need to get better." I said

"So it's about 90 days but that's if you want to stay for full 90. It's the residential stay, they help and you can get a job, but obviously you have school. So if you want we can cut it back to 30 days" Aidan asked

"Honestly 30 days sounds fine" I replied

"Ok, I'll call the center and change it" he said

He left the room and then ace came into the room. I didn't really know him that well
